[SR-Users] can't assign values to $fU

[Karthik Srinivasan]

Alex,

You are correct.  msg_apply_changes works.

I am a bit confused on why this is so.   I have manipulated $rU for example
without having to call msg_apply_changes.

Could you explain why we need to call this function when manipulating $fU ?

Thanks,

Karthik
